Let's Talk About Scouting

[jimv]

We use a scouting app that was developed by a former student. It is a web app that we access through phones and laptops. In the case of laptops we later upload our data using USB tethering to a smart phone. We keep track of data for each bot such as scoring in auto and teleop and any statistics that we can use to figure out if they will partner with us well. We use both qualitative and quantitative qualities. Our members in the pit can simply log on to the app to see up to date or mostly up to date data. A better way to provide a wired connection to laptops off of a cellular connection would be great, as two out of the three schools our members come from are provided with chromebooks, and many people have no other capable device.
